Strange Star

Samper · 01-31-2005, 04:57 PM

A while back I had seen this guy and mentioned him on here. Zhenya said I might wanna keep a close eye on him.

It has 3 arms but looks like it might be growning a new one to total four.
Moves very slow doesn't mind the light and is a sandy color on all sides with some small brown splotches. As you know the camera I'm using lately isn't the greatest and I can't get him out to take some better shots cause of where he is at the moment. If he moves up above my framework I'll get him into a bowl for some closer shots.

Doesn't seem to bother any corals from my observations.

Any ideas?

The number of arms is variable and of no consequence. Keep an eye on it to see if it starts eating your SPS but chances are that it is a harmless scavenger.
